Excerpt

Zik tapped his commbadge, “Sam, did we get them all?”

She replied, “I only count five, and P’Trell’s not one of them.”

I heard phaser blasts behind me and whirled around just in time to watch Bavelyn get gunned down. P’Trell, Denarchia, and the Klingon came running out of the woods behind us. Zik dove for cover behind a rock nearby as P’Trell fired at him. I screamed as the Klingon ran up to me, preparing to shoot me.

I felt something slam into me, and my eyes widened as the phaser bolt whizzed past me, only a centimeter from my ear. I turned to see my rescuer, and was only half surprised to see Christopher. He fired up at the Klingon’s chest, and he fell to the ground incapacitated.

Zik jumped out from behind his cover and shouted, “Stay down cadets!” He fired at P’Trell and clipped him, but a blast from Denarchia struck him in the arm, causing him to drop his phaser rifle. A second shot from P’Trell dropped him.
